The bad thing about the draft is that all aspect of American society will therefore know the harshness of war. It will help the antiwar movement if every facet of American life gets a taste of the war and not the lower socioeconimical groups. The draft has such negative conotations that it will never happened unless something catastrophic happens.

wait, that's a bad thing why? people should know what they're getting into. just imagine, in 20-30 years, the class of people who are running this country will be mostly people who have never known anything but privilege.

and yeah, even something catastrophic happening probably wouldn't do it.
